"Holding my dogs favorite toy hostage," reads the caption of the video posted on the Instagram page dedicated to the dog. The video opens to show the woman taping down her pet's favourite toy to the ground. She then waits for her dog Charlie to figure out the hostage situation. Soon, the dog initiated a rescue operation to save his dear friend. What follows next is doggo's efforts to save his friend without hurting it. In the end, the dog is seen wagging his tail to convey his happiness and pride.
